Valentine’s Day is just around the corner! For those of you who haven’t found something sweet for the special people in your life, I’ve got you covered with the best picks from a few of my favorite local Austin shops.

Valentine’s Day is one of those holidays where you aren’t technically obligated to gift, but I have found that it’s actually one of my favorite holidays to spoil the people I love. With regards to gifts on special occasions, my Mom once told me, “[giving] nothing is just thoughtless”. It’s true. Even if it’s free like a heartfelt note or creative like something you can make or eye-catching like something you see at the store and you immediately think of that special someone, it’s always good to give something (from the heart).

These gift ideas are awesome for a whole lot of reasons, but especially because you can find them (today!) at a local Austin boutique for your husband (or wife), kids and BFF all in one quick stop! Hello beautiful, glorious convenience.
